This I believe is the crux of any disagreements...

You have with some of us.

What do you mean not the same thing? You are afraid of us discussing it scaring people away, but RP himself wasn't afraid to openly and on video thank us and it certainly didn't hurt his image.

Because we can agree that effectively, we work toward the same end (at least for now).

We generally agree on all of the basic premises.

The core difference is a disagreement about how to achieve it, not even the end goals really. Because if we had minarchism, it would be obvious whether anarchism was a valid system or not and we could choose to move toward it or abandon it as a principle and start back down the path to statism and away from minarchism.

I believe when I convince a soldier to come home and give up the war, because of liberty, I have permanently won at least one person. I have decreased the war effort by one. That win cannot be undone. If you convince 49% to vote against the war, those votes are useless the next day.

Mine is slower, harder, but longer lasting.

In any event, it's a worldview thing, and I somehow doubt either one of us will magically decide the other's approach works better... lol.. :)
